I'll be in Los Angeles starting later today until Sunday for the annual International Space Development Conference hosted by the National Space Society and the Planetary Society. I've just learned that they are now expecting over 1000 people to the conference which is fantastic.

I think having two of the most promiment space advocacy groups joining forces for this event was a great idea. Kudos to George Whitesides and Louis Friedman for coming together on this.
